I took a chance with The Biddle House as it received a rather negative review awhile back. I called and talked with the service, AtHomeInnChicago, and was assured all was well. (I liked the location and price...it had received a couple good reviews too...). I loved it. Cozy, great visuals from the living room, organic breakfast foods including good coffee. Nice quiet street and pleasant neighborhood. Felt safe. Easy walk to El and bus. Great coffee shop down Sedgwick, Eva's...more old world charm. Difficulties were quickly remedied (small, like no coffee filters). My bed was very comfortable, good linens, a bit of a slope in the mattress and I wrote to them after I left and they said they would address the bedroom situations - my travel companion stayed in the other bedroom and she said her bed was "noisy" - creaking whenever she moved, etc. The bathroom was a nice size and pleasantly old fashioned. There is a rather large, new t.v. screen in the living room that doesn't fit the ambience, but I was glad to watch the news. Not a big deal. I would definitely stay here again.
